DALTON, CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: METRAILER MEDICAL CLINIC SHORT -FORM PCD (Z-4850), LOCATED AT 1200 AND 1204 NORTH HARRISON STREET BOARD ACTION RECOMMENDED Denial of this request. BACKGROUND INFORMATION; Staff is opposed to this rezoning because it is contrary to the land use plan for the area and may lead to destabilization of the neighboring residential area. This is a good example of a planned unit development being used to get around a non-residential rezoning request that historically has been turned down. The proposed planned commercial development would set a precedent for other office rezonings in the immediate area. Recommended restrictions on the medical clinic.will not overcome the fact that this represents a basic land use change in that area. TDD/se CITY OF LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS ORDINANCE NO.

Tyler AUG 5 3� Little Rock, AR 72205 }` i9� Dear Mr Flory, In the near future the City Planning Commission will consider my proposal to construct a physicians office on the vacant lots at N.Harrison and Evergreen Streets. Many of my patients live in the neighborhood or nearby, and I feel this would be beneficial to the community. I am very familiar with the area and am attached to it. I grew up on Polk street where my mother,Lucille Metrailer still lives. I attended Holy Souls School as do my children and we are members of Holy Souls Parish. This area was my paper route in the mid 19601s. I have strong ties to the neighborhood and would like to see the lots developed in the best interest of the community. The Little Rock Planning Commission Staff at the June 13th, 1987 meeting has recommended that this proposed use of the lots be denied. They cited 111) Inappropriate land use. 2) Noncompliance with land use plan." as the reasons. Current zoning would allow only single family residential use for these lots. Available usages would seem to be construction of 1) a personal residence, 2) rental property with individual houses or 3) remaining undeveloped. I personally believe that a quiet physicians office in this area would be more beneficial to the community. I would not forsee any negative impact on the area. If, in fact, you feel a quiet office in this area would be the better usage, I would strongly encourage you to contact the City Planning Commission and if at all possible be present at the hearing to express your views. Your opinion will have a much greater impact and influence on the Planning Commission than anything which I could present. The meeting will be held at City Hall in the Board of Directors Chamber, 2nd floor, on August llth 1987 at 1:00 P.M. Correspondence or telephone calls may be directed to the address or number below. Office of Comprehensive Planning City Hall Markham at Broadway Little Rock,Ark. 72201 501-371-4790 I would like to thank you in advance for the time and consideration which you give to this matter. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have concerning this and would remind you that the people of the area will have the greatest influence on the outcome of this issue. Sincerely, mes A.Metrailer,M.D. I am in favor of the Metrailer Medical Clinic at 12.00 & 1204 N. Harrison. I am opposed to the Metrailer Medical Clinic at 1200 & 1204 N. Harrison.
